To replace the youngest in the Hegel line of integrated amplifiers – the popular H90 model – audio gurus from Oslo have prepared a new device. “Intelligence is change.” It was under this motto that the Hegel H95 was presented to the general public. Indeed, in combination with the signature “Hegel” sound quality, the widest possibilities for upgrade […] More
Accuphase Laboratories, Inc. (originally known as Kensonic Laboratories, Inc.) – Japanese manufacturer of high-end electronics. Accuphase Laboratories was founded in 1972 by disgraced Kenwood Corporation engineer Jiro Kasuga. Kasuga did not agree with Kenwood’s position in the approach to the development of equipment; many of its developments never reached mass production due to commercial unprofitability […] More
The Copland CSA-100 amplifier combines the advantages of tube and solid-state amplification, the latter being implemented using bipolar and field-effect transistors. The amplifier has its own DAC on the ESS Saber ES9018 chip and a phono stage for MM heads. The input section is tube-based, built on a low-noise dual triode 6922. From the same […] More
The Electrocompaniet AW250-R is a two-channel power amplifier with an uncompromising design that can confidently drive any speaker system. The amplifier’s power supply contains huge custom toroidal transformers made using proprietary FTT technology. The entire circuit of the Electrocompaniet AW250-R is made according to the dual mono principle, using discrete audiophile-grade components. The voltage filter of each channel […] More
Accuphase mono power amplifiers have always been at the forefront of the global audio industry. Many models have gone down in history as legendary. The Accuphase M-6200 approaches the power amplifier concept from a new perspective. By maintaining two completely identical amplification circuits in parallel, the M-6200 dramatically reduces noise and improves attenuation. The advantage of parallel operation is […] More
The Cambridge Audio Edge M mono speaker features a fully balanced circuit topology that ensures negligible distortion. The power supply contains a pair of toroidal transformers connected in a special way, which are installed one above the other (in fact, this is a double toroidal transformer with opposite winding symmetry). According to the manufacturer, this technical […] More
